Itch

that itch that enfolds your beauty
to look at it without a stroke is a pity
sometimes i cannot hold it any longer
desire to give in, yearn for u to linger

ill be strong, i wont give up, baby dont fret
ur exquisiteness will flourish, future is set
not moving a muscle, adhere to where i stand
anticipation grows to see thy splendour grand

through the facet, i run my fingers
i close my eyes, i feel the hunger
gradually the delineation i feelshowing impression a moment could steal

*how i'll remember the work of art,the irritating itch not the hurt

Masterpiece

bearing a masterpiece is something
to some this represents an evil doing
convey a simple significance of art
people that are close to my heart

the pain i endure for years incised
symbol of great love and ecstacy lies
never it will ebb, eternally it'll remain
for thy profound meaning & beauty lies within

trembling with fear, i sit in a chair
will i endure the pain or run back to my lair
been through a lot of hurting compare to this one
in an hour, pain will subside ur beauty will reign

*for the art etched in my skin forever it will remain

I had it... finally!

Way back in high school, my first boyfriend had a tattoo one with my name on it and one with our name. He did it by himself actually, and I can say that he had inspired me or have been the sole source of my thinking that I'll have one on myself one day. But definitely not the name of a boyfriend. (Yeah we didn't end up together and I think his wife has been so jealous about it haha who wouldn't be?)

Anyway, a year later, Ive completed the concept. Still, the audacity of having it on my own skin was nowhere to be found. Until recently. Two weeks ago, I completed the design. Now it's here on my skin. I can't believe it! I've done it. Physical pain is way too far from having an emotional pain. Physical pain can heal within a month or so. Emotional pain can turn your life upside down.

I went to the parlor about 8pm. I haven't taken my dinner. And I was kinda shaky bec I knew it's really painful. I was cold actually. I'm suppose to have it near my belly button but the guy said that my design was meant for the back. He's suggesting to do a lot of changes on the design but i prefer not to. Because every inch of the design means something to me. So I had it. As the artist started the tattoo, I thought it was not that painful. It was irritating bec of the noise, though. But when he did stop for a minute, it was then that I felt the pain. I almost call my bebi (btw, he doesnt know it yet) but thought for a minute not to do so. It took us an hour to do it and I feel like it's burning my skin. I kinda feel proud about myself, though.

I created a poem before I had the tattoo... It explains the meaning of my design.

Canvas

each stroke of a brush
i feel my blood gush
drawing a thin line
carefully till its finegradually the image shows
depiction of life flows
treasures are neatly kept
with every single step

each side bears the waves of pain
every strike blazing like a flame
with the hands of God i stand still
helps me to endure and do not feel

engraved are letters of each gold
protect from anything as long as i can hold
with a white ink i stroke jaccr
epitomizing the purity of the heart

when the sun spread its rays and bring us light
ill prepare a day to do what will give me delight
a canvas to bear a masterpiece, a work of art
that forever will remain, be here in my heart

jaccr - my only reason for living.

Childish dream

do u realize how painful it is to care for somebody and never had the chance to show it to that person? how time is not on your side and is turning its back against you?no one is born to be a super hero. as much as i want to be on every living person that i care about, i just can't be at their side when they're in pain. i just can't. i have been assigned to take care of someone that is within my grasp and i know that is where i should focused my attention. i know that if i tried to extend my ability to what was beyond the things i can only do, it'll jst make things worst. no matter how sad i'll be for not doing anything and just sit here, i know it'll be best. sometimes the things u can't do were the ones that could make things easier and bearable. the pain that they have to endure helps them to be a better person. just as i have been. with the things ive done and the pain ive been through. without all of it, i won't know what kind of person i am now and i wont know what it is like to be hurt. like a child. to take their first step, they have to fall and they must know what could hurt them.

i guess now the only thing i need is something to cheer me up. something that could put back the rainbow in my sky. it'll be over and i wont realize it. i'll be fine. so is the person i cared so much about.

Where you'll be

to love that's so mysterious
to reasons some are oblivious
answers can't be found
meaning that are profound

feel the love, follow your heart
would it be still if it hurt
seek the remedy, cure the pain
some succeed, some are vain

cure your wounds, inflict venom to one
ur pain subsides, free to run
to someone, ur venom remains
creeping slowly through the veins

would it still be right?
to which you will fight?
the one that gives u delight
or the one that loves u inspite

sanity slowy ebbs away
renounce to this fray
silently u kneel to pray
to give you strength guide u all the way

Your love

every minute of the day
i pray fervently and say
this love i have if i may
forever it will stayu have show me great love
that i didnt deserve to have
my life is filled with rainbows
with its colorful shining rows

no matter how ur days are busy
when im in pain and sound too pushy
ur love gives me serenity
soothes my soul till eternity

Falling in love

falling in love is a mystery
how it happens, when it comes
why some loves grow
why some loves faillove must be taken
as an unfathomable gift
cannot be questioned
in its mysterious ways

love comes, love goes
when it leaves, it have to
reclaim not the love that is lost
accept it for what it was, move on

u cannot find answer
when there is none
there is no meaning
beyond love itself

love has its own time and season
its own reasons for coming and going
be glad that it came to live
for a moment in your life

Vessel

the stillness of the sea on a cold dark night
a boat slowly sinking is a dreadful sight
for a family of four screaming for help
with nobody coming for aid but myself

im not a ship that can convey all four
just a small vessel that can adequate two
ambivalent of the situation, i burst into tears
the need to save them all aggravate my fears

the silent sound of a whirling fan
wakes me up in the reverie that i had
with great relief, i sigh and pray
utmost thanks for my family is safe

in a vision too rapid with a minute or two
with a vivid delineation but profound value
i seek GOD's answer to this dream i had
and found solace with his promise of love

To see you go

pain is too much now that you're gone
i tried everything but it can't be undone
your memories, your scent wont leave me alone
time cannot erase all that we've shared as onepainful thing a life bestow
saying goodbye while still aglow
burning with desire and love enfold

my eyes are wet filled with tears
to see you go i cannot bear
mind is filled with questions to GOD
to have one more minute and i wont be sad

a minute is enough before you leave
to feel your face and make you believe
that i love you so much to the last minute

never renounce do wait for me
it may take awhile but i wont let u down
when my chores are through and my time has come
i'll be there never to leave your side

Exalted Love

i was astray when you pick me up
alone in a place where there is no light
heart and mind satiated with anger
body shaking with anxiety from danger

i was scared and was once blinded
you stood by me and keep me guided
imperfection enfolds my entire soul
you held my hand lifted me up from the hole

i was dejected trapped in a predicament
you listen intently only you can comprehend
place i live in mould me into depression
you came along infuse me with compassion

my life now shines like a rainbow
vivid colors your love endow
hold my hand and leave me never
serenity besiege me just be there forever
